Bharti Singh On Suffering Pay-Curtailment Post Covid: 'Main Ek Lakh Leti Thi, Par Ab 50 Hazaar...'

Bharti Singh is one of most talented comedians in the showbiz world at the moment. The talented artist has created a huge fan base for herself, and has cured away their sad moments with her ROFL jokes and witty outtakes. She has been a part of several shows, and has also performed gigs and stand-up shows individually. In her personal life, she is married to popular screenwriter, Haarsh Limbachiyya and the duo is blessed with a son, Laksh.

Bharti Singh opens up about shifting her focus more towards her YouTube channel than comedy shows

Bharti Singh has reached out to a wider range of audience particularly through her YouTube channel, LOL- Life Of Limbachiyyas. Through her channel, she provides a closer insight into her life and works to her fans, and keeps them hooked up to the newest developments. And, in one of her latest Vlogs, Bharti spoke about the reason as to why she chose to focus more on her YouTube channel, since much of her shows have suffered a severe slash of remuneration post Covid-19. Revealing how she gets paid something which she doesn’t deserve, Bharti mentioned:

“Ever since the pandemic hit us, budgets of the shows have really been affected. And that has happened in all the industries. But, no artiste would be fine if they are not paid what they deserve. Agar main jo charge karti thi, uska 25% bhi nahi doge aap, toh fir kaam nahi ho ho payega.”

Bharti reveals that her remuneration has been curtailed to nearly half of what she used to get

Moving further, Bharti clarified that with such cost-curtailing done by the makers of the show, her remuneration had been undeservedly slashed to an absolute half. She added that she never complains, and that once she is on stage, her dedication towards work nearly makes her forget how long she had been performing, vis-à-vis what she gets paid for it. In her words:

“I don’t say things like, ‘Main 1 lac leti thi, par ab 50 hazaar le rahi hu toh 6 ki jagah 3 jokes hi maarungi. Once I go on the stage, I don’t even remember for how long I’ve been asked to perform or how much I’ve been paid. Live shows mein mujhe rokna padta hai because I’m not someone who follows the script. So, I never ever complain about overtime also.”

Bharti states she is willing to step back if it means to get paid less for leaving her child back home

In the concluding segment of her Vlog, Bharti mentioned that she would be happy to take a step back from her shows, if such pay cut would prevail. She highlighted how as a working mother, it seems unjust for her to leave her son behind for 12 hours or more a day, only to get a pay which she does not deserve.
